Tuition is billed monthly and is due on the first of the month.  Payments may be by cash or check (there is a $30 fee for NSF checks).

 

 

Attendance

 

It is the responsibility of each student to be prompt and prepared for each lesson.  Regular attendance of lessons and consistent practice is required, as consistency is essential to the study and learning of music.   Attendance at recitals is strongly encouraged.

 

Missed lessons by the student need to be rescheduled with the teacher in the semester in which they were missed.  Missed lessons by the teacher may be rescheduled or refunded at the discretion of the teacher.   Individual lessons are refunded at 25% of the monthly tuition rate.

 

To cancel a lesson, please call or email the studio prior to the lesson time.

 

To discontinue lessons, please notify the studio prior to the end of the month.  Tuition is still due and non-refundable for the month in which discontinued lessons occur.

 

 

Materials

 

We will purchase music for each student so that the correct materials are obtained.  The cost for materials will be included on the following month’s tuition bill.

 

 

Communication

 

We use phone and email as the primary means of communicating with students.  If your phone number or email address changes, please notify the studio as soon as possible.    If you do not have an email address, we will use an alternate form of communication and billing.   Please arrange this with the studio prior to beginning lessons.

 

 

Other

 

Teachers may substitute for one another on occasion, with no change in tuition.  

 

We reserve the right to cancel any student who does not adhere to these policies.
